LOS ANGELES, CA — Freddie Freeman is currently away from the team to be with his family as his son, Maximus, has been hospitalized. Freeman left the Dodgers’ lineup against the Houston Astros to return to Southern California. His wife, Chelsea, revealed that their 3-year-old son was in the hospital earlier this week with transient synovitis, an inflammation of the hip joint lining common in young children. Details of Maximus’s condition remain unclear.
Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts acknowledged Freeman’s emotional struggle, expressing hope for Maximus’s full recovery. Freeman is not expected to rejoin the team in Houston, with his return contingent on his son’s health status.
“When your child is going through things it’s just hard to be present, and rightfully so,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said, via The Los Angeles Times. “He certainly had a heavy heart the last few days, and I just pray that Max is going to recover well and have a full recovery.”
As a devoted Dodgers fans, we at DodgersBeat want to send our best wishes to Freddie Freeman and his family during this challenging time. We all hope for Maximus’s speedy and complete recovery. Let’s keep our spirits high and support Freddie and his family through this tough period. Get well soon, Maximus!
